Having studied the map under a microscope, in a more relaxed environment, I reckon I can see where we went wrong.<br /><br />This was an interesting walk and an eye-opener to the merits of an area one thinks of as totally urban.<br /><br />-----------------------<br /><br />Gayle - Same here. From experience I reckon the odds are in favour of getting through, but you can't win them all.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-10032601747266769362015-01-20T21:13:27.565+00:002015-01-20T21:13:27.565+00:00I'm not sure whether I should publicly admit t...I'm not sure whether I should publicly admit that I've got a bit of a track record of walking through closed sections of tow-path (and footpaths, for that matter) and, more often than not, find there's no real obstruction (other than the closure barriers). Every now and then, though, it turns out that the closure and diversion was entirely warranted; always annoying when that happens - especially when you've walked the best part of a mile to find out!Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08648378503343413924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-24072671769485962692015-01-20T19:41:29.264+00:002015-01-20T19:41:29.264+00:00You passed our house Conrad.

It caught me out the first time I encountered it, but it's not too bad if you know the route - it passes some points of interest.Phreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.com
